So I"m asking for some help from my epically talented castle men and women. Do any of you know of or have successfully built a LEGO campfire? Links would be very very very helpful. Thanks ever so much.

The campfire in that was excellently pulled off, and their image was great. I'll look around a bit, i'd like to think it's exactly what you are looking for.

That...Was Siercon and Coral. I think their campfire is just what you need, Lady Blue.

My basic technique is to start with about four or five jumper plates on the ground, in either black or dark gray (to be the ashes), and put old-style flames sticking up out of the open studs. Then I kind of randomly pile logs made either of 2 or 3 1x1 round bricks, or just brown lightsaber blades, in between the flames. For a larger fire connect more flames via the notch technique. Examples are here and here. You could get more shape by alternating in some of the new plume/flame pieces.
